How to Stream Live Video from Desktop Webcam to My Website

[vega123]

Hello All,

Was wondering if anybody out there knows how to stream a live video feed from a desktop webcam (e.g. just a regular Logitech webcam) to a website where someone can access a URL and see it live?

Thanks.

There are many options - here's a free one for Windows:

Thanks bcolflesh.

My website is written in PHP/MySQL -- do you know if this program will work with this setup?

I think this is a Windows-only version.

Not sure about streaming video but you can grab live snapshots with webcam2000. On a home setup an image server like webcam2000 will go easier on your bandwidth. A little bit of programming and you can easily copy those images to disk too.

I suggest you have a look at QuickTime Broadcaster

Take a look at the Windows Media Encoder 9 Series as well.
